📣 A little reminder about my availability from September onwards! 🐴🐶

With just over 7 weeks until I finish work for maternity leave, my availability is now becoming very limited!

I’m also taking August Bank Holiday 3 day weekend off to spend some much needed quality time with my husband and family before we are both at work and in the last bits of chaos!

From 1st September, I’ll be starting my final human physiotherapy placement, which means I’ll have practically no availability during the week for veterinary physiotherapy appointments.

My weekends are also currently fully booked, but I may be able to fit a small number of animals into key areas where I can group appointments geographically.

If you’re hoping to get your horse or dog seen before I finish, please get in touch with your location and what you’re looking for and I’ll see what I can do. ❤️ Please be patient with me as some weeks I won’t be taking a day off as I love what I do and helping your animals, but I am also nearly 8 months pregnant 🫣🥰

From 10th October, I’ll be taking maternity leave and won’t be taking on any new appointments. Aiming to be back at it from January all being well 🥰

Thank you so much for your patience and understanding while I juggle the final stretch of my degree, my business and preparing for our little one’s arrival! 👶💕

📣 Diary update! 🐴🐶

As many of you know, we’re expecting our little one at the end of October! 👶💕

I wanted to give everyone plenty of notice about my availability over the coming months.

I’m lucky to have lots of availability throughout August, but from 1st September I’ll be starting my final human physiotherapy placement, which means I’ll have limited weekend availability for my veterinary physiotherapy appointments. I’m then planning to finish work around 10th October before taking some maternity leave.

If your horse or dog is due a treatment this autumn, or you know they’ll be due before the end of the year, now is a great time to get in touch. We can either bring their appointment forward into August, secure a September appointment while availability lasts, or make a plan for when I’m hoping to return part-time from January (all being well!).

Thank you so much for your continued support of my little business—I really do appreciate every one of you. ❤️

Now that I’m coming to the end of yet another NHS placement I’m pleased to say I will have more availability during the week for appointments (which should free up some weekend hours for those that need them! 🥳)

From Tuesday 26th May I will be back into the full swing of it!! Please message if I’ve kept you waiting, do chase me up!! 🙈

I will be starting the day at 11am depending on locations due to going to ride my own horse and his turnout time! 🐴

Unfortunately I do have to say if you are wanting to pay via BACS it will now be AHEAD of appointments only. One or two bad apples sadly spoil the pot. Payments must be made before I treat your horse or dog. If you have cash or card on the day the usual arrangement stands 💸

Sadly I am having to chase payments from February still and I’m just as poor as everyone else with the cost of living 🫣 Sorry to be negative!

Thank you to everyone who continues to support me and my business!!

In other positive news I hope to very soon be adding human sports massage in for appointments and dedicating a day a week to this service initially 💆‍♀️💆‍♂️🥳🥳

Still very cold here in lovely old Lincolnshire 🥶

If you need to re-arrange your appointments this weekend due to ice/snow then please let me know.

I’m trying to juggle my own horse’s exercise and calendar planning in it so I do understand 😊 And I’m very lucky to be on an excellent full livery yard so if your trying to juggle 99 DIY jobs, don’t panic ⛄️

Hopefully we don’t get the storm from the South hitting us.

Only 71 days until Spring 2026! 🌷 ☀️

This is what it looks like when you rescue a horse and do absolutely everything right 🤩😍

That’s top ownership right there ⭐️🥇

What a glow up!! 🐴

Had such a good day today at the CSP Student Conference!

So good to see so many positive idea sharing from fellow physio students. Been such a busy few weeks on placement and throwing myself all in on that! I’ve had some amazing positive feedback from my educator though this time around 🥳🙌🏻

Can’t wait to see what the last 2 weeks of placement brings but first I’m attending the CSP Conference which brings all members together for 2 days to share knowledge!
It’s a good job some of its recorded because I want to be in about 5 different rooms at once 🤓🙊🤣

🚨🚨 Biosecurity 🚨🚨

A post every professional never wants to make but is always aware of protocols and for the most part has protective procedures in place regardless.

🩺 However with the news breaking sadly of Strangles on an extremely local yard, it needs to be said. It is my understanding that the yard in our area is doing everything in its power to notify and inform which is great.

📅 If you suspect your horse is showing any signs of respiratory illness - Please let me know before arrival on your yard and take the opportunity to re arrange your appointment.

A lot of people joke I look like I live out of my car - Well to be honest it’s because I always have sets of clothes in their to change into; alcohol disinfectant wipes for my boots etc.

Horse safety and biosecurity should be paramount for every professional and anyone switching between multiple yards. If I can avoid multiple switching I will, but between horses I will be taking all known provisions available.

Here’s some tips about strangles you might find useful:

⚠️ Strangles is a highly contagious bacterial disease caused by Streptococcus equi equi.

🤝 It is spread both Directly (horse to horse) and indirectly (via equipment!!) this is why biosecurity is paramount.

😷 Respiratory discharge, lethargy and a high temperature (over 38C) are key symptoms.

🤒 It is characterized by swelling of the lymph nodes and the formation of abscesses, primarily in the head and neck.

‼️ Disease severity varies and younger horses often exhibit more severe clinical signs than older horses.

🚦The prognosis for uncomplicated cases is good, and some horses develop an immunity to S. equi that can last for at least five years.

🛑 The best strategy to prevent strangles is to minimize exposure risks. Isolate any horse showing symptoms and use equipment for that horse only!!

🕰️ It takes up to 21 days for infected horses to show symptoms. Full recovery takes 3 - 6 weeks!

🐴 Let’s all be smart as an equine community and be a little over the top with our caution to limit the spread 🐴

🗓️ If you’d like to discuss your booking - Where I will be coming from or if you’d like to ask me to change my clothes en route - Just ask! As long as it conforms with GDPR I am happy to share information and I’m very used to getting changed in my parked car 🚙

👩‍⚕️ The next 7 weeks I am on my second NHS placement anyway so I have taken limited bookings from familiar clients with mostly full yard days.

Thank you all! Here’s some Infographics from Strangles awareness week you might find useful.
Feel free to share if any of this information above is helpful!

⭐️ Exciting times ahead! ⭐️

This Sunday I attended the final day of my sports massage course and sat the practical assessment!

I’m pleased to say that I have now passed both Theory and Practical elements! And now I’m able to move onto the Case Study portion 😁

Thank you so much to everyone who volunteered to be my guinea pigs to get my hours in! I’ll be messaging you all later to get the sessions completed 😎

🗓️ My final submission date for the case studies is the 9th November! 📆

My aim is to be able to answer the big question I get from so many of you - “Do you treat people too” by the start of December 🤩

Sports Massage coming December 2025 😎
Human Physiotherapy coming January 2027 😍

WOW! You guys are all such broken people!! 5 spaces filled! Thank you so much everyone 🤩

💥 Special Offer 💥

Looking for willing participants 🫣🤞🏻

I need 5️⃣ people for 3️⃣ Sports Massage sessions each.
1️⃣ is an initial consultation, then 2️⃣ follow up sessions (over the course of 3-4 weeks).

🏥 You need to be willing to share medical history so I can rule out any contraindications (reasons we cannot treat)

🧘‍♀️ Don’t necessarily need to have a problem or an injury but an area that you’d like to feel more supple though would be beneficial so we can test for improvements.

💆🏼‍♀️ Agree to a sports massage that might not be 100% the polished version whilst I improve my techniques.

🏡 At the minute I’ll be mobile with my massage bench, so have a suitable space that I could work within your home.

🧭 Be in the Grimsby radius (Grimsby, New Waltham, Waltham, Cleethorpes) or around Louth. Areas that I travel in regularly so it’s not costing me loads of extra fuel money 🚘

💰 Offering this as a FREE opportunity to get my hours and my case studies completed ASAP so my work can be marked and then I can add it to my services whilst I complete my 2nd and final year of the Physiotherapy course! 👩🏼‍🎓

❌ I’ve screenshotted the list of absolute contraindications from the example document if you think “oh I have this, not sure if I could” as well as how the medical history is laid out for the details.

✅ If it sounds like 3 sport massage treatments might be for you, drop me a message with what you’d like working on, whether you have anything you think might be a contraindication or not and we’ll work out a 1st session and a plan ✅
